The CMS is seeking original contributions from portable metrology experts that cover the successful use of 3D coordinate measurement systems, case studies, technology benchmarks, scientific research and developments, and more. Commercial content is not accepted. The CMSC is the premier gathering where experienced metrologists present their projects and showcase their knowledge of industry best practices, measurement strategies, and implementations. The CMS is the eminent membership association for measurement professionals around the globe.

(CMS: Weatherford, TX) -- The Executive Board of the Coordinate Metrology Society (CMS), the eminent membership association for measurement professionals, has changed the name of its Coordinate Metrology Systems Conference (CMSC). The new name of the event is the Coordinate Metrology Society Conference. While the society retains the CMSC acronym, it has changed the “Systems” component to “Society” to realign the conference name with the organization.

The CMSC originated more than three decades ago in 1984 as industrial metrologists began to have different needs and goals from geospatial metrology users. The annual conference has provided a well-respected forum for the open exchange of ideas, problem-solving, and showcasing technology advancements through technical paper presentations and interaction with experts in the exhibition hall.

The CMS focused on expanding access to career-enhancement programming, and launched a new Measurement Zone with daily activities.

The CMS prides itself on the open, educational atmosphere cultivated at the CMSC. The event not only attracted the top brass in the metrology industry, but also manufacturers, engineers, scientists, quality control specialists, educators, and students. Attendees were encouraged to discuss applications, seek solutions, and explore the newest technology advancements from OEM manufacturers of close-tolerance, industrial coordinate measurement systems, software, and peripherals.

(CMSC: Benbrook, TX) -- The Coordinate Metrology Society (CMS) has announced the results of its fourth large-scale measurement study performed at the 29th annual Coordinate Metrology Systems Conference (CMSC) held in San Diego. The study was developed to support the CMS Level II Certification Examination development process, which will culminate in the industry’s first instrumentation-based certification program for portable 3D metrology. The study’s main focus was to evaluate how decisions made during and after measurement affect the final measurement result. The 50-page report, titled“Noncontact Scanning: How Data Are Affected by the Decisions We Make,” details the results and analysis of the interactive measurement study. The new report is now available for members of the CMS.
